Biography
Link's Awakening
Mamu resides in the pond beneath the Signpost Maze.[2] He teaches Link the "Frog's Song of Soul" after paying him 300 Rupees.[6][7] Mamu remarks that the ones who hear the song feel more alive.[8] Mamu cannot be revisited afterwards, as he and his choir are away on tour according to the sign outside the pond.[9]
Mamu is the main villain of Yume Kojo: Doki Doki Panic, released outside of Japan as Super Mario Bros. 2; however, his name was changed to Wart during localization. This was given an indirect reference in Hyrule Warriors with Ganondorf's Mamu palette swap.
